Team
The Glaciers project is led by the Department of Geography, University of Zurich (GIUZ) as the prime contractor.
The EO team consists of four sub-contractors from four countries. Two of these are industry partners (Enveo, Gamma) and two are from Universities (GUIO, SEEL). The climate research group is supporting the project by providing advice, independent quality assessment and application of the generated datasets in glacier models.
